a word from my sponsors

 Being an independent quilter I don't rely on sponsor's*

for my fabrics.

However I do have my own fabric sponsors

they are my family and friends.

 Last week was my birthday week

and it was overflowing with fabric.

The first was a luscious bundle across the pond from my pal Mary

from Molly Flanders

I'm sure you have all met her by now,

but if not go take a look,

she is a true inspiration.

Thank you Mary!!

 Another bloggy friend who is never empty handed

Lisa from Jumble and Jelly

gave me these two above.

Fabric is fabric,

I don't care if they've had a past life,

I can give them new lives.

The turquoise has already been chopped!

 The very pretty rose floral is a huge pair of  rescued curtains

courtesy of my Mother in law.

I thought they would make great outdoor cushions or

hang them as they are!!

That was until I found this beauty.

£5 from a charity shop!

I think it's vintage...it's called anemone from fothergay.

There is at least 5 metres of  it.

I think it would make an awesome door curtain for our new extension,

just don't tell the old man!
How lucky am I?
I think I shall make a new resolution
that my birthday week will always
contain fabric in some form or other.

*ps I'm not immune to the idea of a fabric sponsor,

I'll do anything for fabric!
